| Summary/Abstract |
'William loved words. He liked plays, too. William also liked girls...' And so begins the story of William Shakespeare's life. In need of money, William moves to London to work in the theatre. He enjoys working with the actors, but doesn't really like the plays they perform. So he decides to write his own. Word gets out about William's plays, and soon his work even has a royal seal of approval from Queen Elizabeth I...This is a uniquely simple, engaging and attractive first history book for children. The simple text works well with Sue Shield's excellent illustrations.
